BT offers to invest £600m to improve broadband speeds

BT has offered to invest up to £600m to make sure the majority of UK households and businesses get broadband speeds of at least 10Mbps per second.

The offer by the communications giant comes after the Government said it would introduce the Universal Service Obligation (USO) regulation, which would give every home and business in the UK the right to request a high-speed broadband connection of at least 10Mbps.
